Syracuse -4
Cuse is in a must win situation because every game they win now, further secures a tournament bid. If they lose this game, it will be a long shot for them to make the tournament. The Cuse will have a lot of fans in MSG and should feed off that. I like the experience Cuse brings with Nichols and Watkins. UConn has 8 freshman and 5 soph on their roster, and then 1 Jr and 1 Sr. UConn plays tough D, especially at home, but MSG will be rowdy. Cuse could win this by a decent margin, and they have been hot. UConn will have trouble with the Cuse zone, and I also think Rautins will be back and hit some big 3's for Cuse as he was pretty non existent vrs Nova. UConn averages nearly 20 less points per game when they are not playing at home. Im on Cuse, go Orange.:00hour
